Answer to what? The question I asked you? I don’t have an answer.
Your prior question. If you don’t have the answer, how can you claim that there is one?
You’re assertion is that humanity, left to its own devices, would cause chaos and death (I don’t disagree). Yet, you also say that a sufficient AI could make changes to humanity to make it less so. If the humans didn’t make those changes themselves, then they have lost their autonomy. Yet you say that isn’t so.
If the answer is as true as you say, why the are you being so coy with the answer?
I’m still not sure I understand exactly. Are you asking about individual autonomy, or the collective autonomy of humanity?
I would say there’s no real difference on an individual level. I guess conceptually, humanity as a collective entity, might loose autonomy. But I’m not sure that matters.

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” – Benjamin Franklin

No need to be coy. If you have the answer (that you haven’t already shared) then don’t let me stop you. Explain.

Safety without giving up liberty just seems fine to me.
